Say hello to my most recent 2015 senior Adaire S. for Cornelius, NC. Adaire and I planned her senior session for several months. We originally wanted to shoot in the peach blossoms of South Carolina but due to changes, we were not able to. Instead I photographed her in the SouthEnd neighborhood of Charlotte for something fun and urban. Her session was a lot of fun and I got to use a new location that is top-secret! It seriously has the best views of the Charlotte skyline. Thank you random dude for letting us come up to that spot. We greatly appreciate it!

I couldn’t be happier with Adaire’s session. Her senior experience was awesome and the images are totally her.

So what does the senior experience look like at Poetic Edge Photography?

First we talk about you and your interests. I am a firm believer that your portraits should say who you are. If you were a cheerleader, lets talk about that. Let’s talk about your favorite style and ideas about your session. During this consultation, we can discuss outfits but there will be a more in-depth conversation about outfits once we decide what kind of backdrop you want.

When we discuss locations, I want to know what your ideal shoot would look like. Do you want a field of tall grass? What about a more fashionable setting? I have several locations that I use in the Charlotte area. This also includes parts of Concord, Davidson, Matthews, ect. I have urban locations, girly locations, locations that show the Charlotte skyline and locations that have Lake Norman in the background. My most popular location is a field out in Matthews. I even have a studio in Noda for those that want something a little more creative or professional.

Once we choose a location, we will plan the outfits. I can either do this by FaceTime, come to your house or even go shopping with you. Yes, I have done all of these. I usually do this on location but please don’t hesitate to call me. I’ll bring the ice cream while we look through your closet. I sometimes have things to borrow as well. I tend to keep accessories and some outfits from past editorials. At this consultation I will make sure that you have everything for your session. I had a cheerleader forget her cheer shoes once. We want to make sure that you have everything you need for your session.

On the day of the shoot, I will have hair and makeup available to you. This isn’t something that everyone will use but it is available as part of the senior experience. I only hire some of the best hair in makeup in town. My go to artist is Sissy Duncan. Sissy is a sweet heart and makes my seniors look their best. She has done most of my seniors sessions of 2015 including Adaire.

At the end of your session, every senior will get a special gift that matches the season. I even have special gifts for the guys.

Ordering your images is also easy. I’ll have a password protected gallery for you to view and purchase any images that you want or need. Contact me for product pricing and packages.

I also want to let you know that I am still looking for 2016 senior reps. I have a special program for reps that have great incentives. For more information on that Senior Reps. I have limited space available from now until July.
